Hi there, i'm a 24 yr old female and looking to get my first road bike. I cycle about 60 miles a week on a really cheap mountain bike i got from tesco ages ago (its wick and hard going, and i have to spend an hour fixing it up when i get home lol)
As i am totally skinto I have a choice between two bikes so i can pay on finance, i know i can buy second hand much much better but its just not an option for me at the minute, and i was hoping that some of you experts could give me a helping hand as i literally know nothing about bikes and want help choosing the best of what is probably a rubbish selection. So anyway this is what i can choose:
Elswick Corsa Road bike or CBR Corsa roadbike - both cost about 350 pounds.
Oh and the muddyfox pace road bike is really cheap from sportsdirect, i was wondering if its any use? again so so cheap and i know realistically nothing under 600 is worthwhile anyway.
As they are so cheap i'm expecting to hear a lot of bad things about them, for a start i havent even heard of these makes apart from muddyfox but im sure they are heaps better than going out on my mountain bike :-)
Would loooove some help on what would be best and why between these two. Thanks so much for your time. Tina
